Hamas supporters scored a victory in elections for the school teachers' union of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) that were held in the Gaza Strip on Wednesday.Just a small reminder that, no matter what UNRWA says, the people who teach at UNRWA schools support terrorism.
The results showed that Hamas won all 11 seats of the teachers' union.
The Hamas victory means that Hamas supporters will continue to control UNRWA-run schools and other academic institutions throughout the Gaza Strip. Hamas has controlled the UNRWA teachers' union for the past 16 years.
Some 10,100 UNRWA workers participated in the election, with the turnout being estimated at more than 97 percent.
The voting was conducted at UNRWA's main headquarters in the Gaza Strip.
